Chamber Die Casting Basic Guide - What is It and How It Works
There are two common types of die casting, which are the hot chamber and the cold chamber die casting processes. Each method will use the same chamber-based process, but in a different way. Hot chamber die casting is the process you will use for alloys that have low melting temperatures, such as zinc die casting. So, when you heat the die...
Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) 3D Printing - What is It and How It Works?
Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) 3D printing is a type of 3D printing method that makes use of the polymer powders to create the parts, components, and prototypes you want by using the additive manufacturing process. The equipment for SLS 3D printing uses laser technology to sinter the polymer powders and make an actual 3D object during the...
The Guidelines for Selecting the Best CNC Materials for Machining
The quality you can get from the CNC-machined parts will depend on the materials you use to create the parts. The better the CNC machining materials you are using, the better the quality of the parts you will get. In producing CNC-machined parts and components, you will need to pick the best materials for the budget you have for your project. In this guide,...
